"He's too playful," You'an sighed leisurely, "I always say that the child's affairs are not in a hurry, how can I rush him in this kind of thing." ”

Wei Xiu'er raised her hand and patted her on the back of her hand: "You, I'm sorry now, there is a time when you are in a hurry." Although he said strange words, his tone was obviously relieved.

After the small gathering, Wei Xiuer personally sent the ladies out of the East Palace, asked the maids to prepare rich gifts for everyone, and sent them to the carriage courteously. People who can be invited to sit in the East Palace will not be too shallow-minded, and they can see a little bit of the princess's heart, and they are still very happy. Wei Xiuer's methods are simple to say, but they are very practical.

What he saw and heard in the East Palace, You'an naturally wanted to tell Li Dan, and it happened that Liu Ruojin also returned from the palace on this day, and Hongni got Li Dan's instructions, so he directly led her to You'an's residence.

"Your Majesty's body, it's really not good," Liu Ruojin saw Li Dan, his face was worried that he couldn't hide, "The imperial doctor in the palace can't prescribe any new prescriptions, but he is forcibly hung with a qi-replenishing potion, but the news is strictly hidden." There are also people who privately recommend famous doctors to the emperor, I don't know if they were affected by Ming Chongyan's incident, and His Majesty refused to use them. ”

You'an saw that the corners of Li Dan's lips trembled invisibly, and he only felt his heart twitch, and said softly: "The famous doctor you took me to find in the past, is he willing to go to Beijing to treat His Majesty?" At least the last time I was treated, the method was a little weird, but the effect was good. ”

Li Dan raised his hand and rubbed her soft hair, not knowing whether he was comforting her, or using this to settle his heart: "The situation of my father, Gu had already asked him, and he asserted at that time that the cure could not be cured, but at the last moment, if necessary, he could go to Beijing to help Gu once, and use a pair of medicine to arouse the last spirit of his father, so that his father could speak and act as usual for more than ten days, and after the effect of the medicine, his father would really ......."

His voice was slightly choked, and You'an didn't say a word, just quietly shook his fingers.

"This last chance can't be used casually," after a while, Li Dan looked as usual, without the slightest trace of grief in his eyes, "Before that, there are still some things to arrange." ”

He raised his eyes and motioned for Hongni to guard the door, and said to Liu Ruojin and You'an: "Judging from the current situation, the crown prince is the most secure, but the prestige and influence of the seventh brother are too weak, even if the crown princess tries her best to make friends with the female relatives of the court, it is still not enough, so the father has always wanted to choose a suitable auxiliary minister who can help the seventh brother in the future." But at the moment, the decrees are all issued by the Uchihiro Bunkan, and if this candidate can't be approved by the queen mother, it's useless. ”

You'an and Liu Ruojin both bowed their heads and were silent, over the years, because the emperor of the Descendants of Heaven was in charge of the government, the court and the middle of the country were arguing, and the people who asked the queen of heaven to return to power and those who supported the queen of heaven to take care of the government have almost reached the point of not talking when they meet on the street, and it is too difficult to find a candidate who is trusted by both sides.

"Gu has been observing for a long time, and he already has a suitable candidate in his heart, ready to propose to his father," Li Dan's gaze was as heavy as water, "but Gu still needs to test him one last time to make sure that he can take on this important responsibility." ”

The person selected by Li Dan in his heart is from the famous Pei family, who participated in the examination of the Ming Jingke when he was young, entered the official career, and now has achieved the middle school. But Li Dan chose him, not because he had read the scriptures and history, nor because he was an official in a high position, but because there were many contradictions in him.

This Pei Yan Pei Shizhong is an official and decent, just like the Ming Jing exam he has taken, just doing things according to the rules, and there is nothing unusual. If there is anything particularly worth mentioning about him, one is that after Ming Chongyan was assassinated, he was ordered by the Queen of Heaven to go to the East Palace to search, and found armor and weapons from Li Xian's residence, which became important evidence to prove Li Xian's anti-intentions in the future. The other is that Pei Xingjian won a complete victory on a certain expedition, and he had already persuaded the Turkic leader Ashina Funian to surrender, but Pei Yan insisted on killing Ashina Funian, on the grounds that the Tang army had won at that time, and surrendering was just an expedient move, and there was no sincerity.

It was from these trivial matters that Li Dan saw the essence of Pei Yan's temperament, and his talent was really not amazing, but he was extremely eager to leave a name for himself in the world, and he was not willing to take the offense seriously, and he did not dare to easily give up his support for Li Tang's orthodox position.

Before pushing Pei Yan to that position, Li Dan still needs to confirm one last thing whether Pei Yan has reached some kind of deal with the Wu clan first.

You'an remembered Wei Xiu'er's approach to being close to the courtiers' daughters, and said to Li Dan: "If I'm not mistaken, this Pei Shizhong's wife, Liu, seems to be the cousin of Jinniang's same clan, why don't you think of a way from this side?" ”

Li Dan added hot tea in front of the two of them: "Ruojin here, it is inevitable that it will be hard, but Lone still needs to confirm Pei Yan's own attitude." ”

I can't ask about this matter, and in a hurry, I may not be able to find a suitable opportunity for a while.

You'an looked away, thinking about it in her heart, her eyes looked aimlessly at the texture of the plush lichen on the ground, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she whispered a few words to Li Dan.

Li Dan listened sideways, and a slight smile spread out at the corner of his mouth: "You can give it a try, but I don't want you to be too tired because of this, what do you need to prepare, just let Hongni do it." ”

Half a month later, You'an brought a specially made lichen into the Hanliang Palace. When the palace maid passed the word and led her in, the queen of heaven was dictating to Shangguan Wan'er a few things that needed to be written h2
